Kathy's first 'An Ocean's Tale' layout!

She started by using 2 of the G45 papers for the background. She cut off 1
inch on the top and the bottom of the main background paper and matted the photos first with a yellow and then an orange G45 paper included in
both the Main and Coordinating Paper Add On. She wanted to create little scenes across the
top and bottom using all those whimsical designs that G45s is famous
for. Lots of steampunk and fun! She stamped a wave design across
the top of the orange mat. The top has Die cut gears she painted with the Art Alchemy paint "Steampunk
Copper" and then inked over them with black ink. She splattered watered down gesso on the top and fussy cut little fish from
another paper. The flowers are included in the Floral Add-On.

She started on the right side of the layout and used some black
netting she cut from a plastic fruit bag. She created a collage on top of
it of flowers from the Main Kit, Tim Holtz "Mechanicals Steampunk"
gears, and a tag from the G45 cardstock collection of tags included in
the Elements Add On.

She fussy cut another image of the man sitting on top of the large fish
and adhered it into the middle of the scene. Below the image she stamped
some swirly images to look like seaweed coming from the bottom of the
ocean flower and placed beads and sequins on top.
